      Wait till you realize this project’s purpose IS to force AI to waste even more resources.

        I mean, the long term goal would be to discourage ai companies from engaging in this behavior by making it useless

        That’s war. That has been the nature of war and deterrence policy ever since industrial manufacture has escalated both the scale of deployments and the cost and destructive power of weaponry. Make it too expensive for the other side to continue fighting (or, in the case of deterrence, to even attack in the first place). If the payoff for scraping no longer justifies the investment of power and processing time, maybe the smaller ones will give up and leave you in peace.

        Governments are full of two types: (1) the stupid, and (2) the self-interested. The former doesn’t understand technology, and the latter doesn’t fucking care.

        Of course “governments” dropped the ball on regulating AI.

      I mean, we contemplate communism, fascism, this, that, and another. When really, it’s just collective trauma and reactionary behavior, because of the lack of self-awareness and in the world around us. So this could just be synthesized as human stupidity. We’re killing ourselves because we’re too stupid to live.

        Dumbest sentiment I read in a while. People, even kids, are pretty much aware of what’s happening (remember Fridays for Future?), but the rich have coopted the power apparatus and they are not letting anyone get in their way of destroying the planet to become a little richer.

        Unclear how AI companies destroying the planet’s resources and habitability has any relation to a political philosophy seated in trauma and ignorance except maybe the greed of a capitalist CEO’s whimsy.

        The fact that the powerful are willing to destroy the planet for momentary gain bears no reflection on the intelligence or awareness of the meek.
